domain shuffling

So I FINALLY broke down and got a place to host all of my various domains so I’m in the process of shuffling things around… Ultimately i’ll be moving my blog onto one off those domains but for the time being it’ll stick here since I need to learn how to setup and configure MT on my own (Matt has been kind enough to handle that for me thus far)… I also need to rework my old personal web site so it doesn’t look so dated – its been offline since we moved and when I pulled it out of mothballs this morning it was a HUGE disk space hog (since I was hosting it myself) and was kind of dated..

So stay tuned – there are changes afoot..

Citizenship Test

One of the guys I work with just took his citizenship test yesterday at the INS (or whatever its called these days) and he mailed out the sample test to our team…. For the most part the questions are pretty straight forward and should be simple but I’m guessing there are a lot of born and raised citizens that would have trouble with many of these questions…

If you care see for your self.. questions are below

Friday Sillyness

Couple of fun things to lighten up your friday:

Ping Pong

happy friday! 🙂

Foreign Press

I just picked up the latest issue of Der Spiegel in the Castro today and on the cover it says “The endless Blitzkreig” as the title and below that it says “Spiegel Series: How the USA lied to the world, overthrew a Tyrant, and is now stuck in a Guerilla War”….

Leave it to the German press to hit the nail squarely on the head in a very blunt way…

I’ll refrain from ranting about Trickey Dick Cheney’s speech this morning. I got into a discussion with Kevin about it briefly at dinner and we had to stop for fear of getting into a fight. He’s much more tolerant and accepting of all of the BS thats going on in our government these days than I am – guess thats the difference between being raised in a conservative family in North Carolina like kevin was and being raised by liberal parents in California like me. Kevin’s pretty sure his entire family actually voted for that butt head in the oval office! 😉

I’ll just keep all the opinions that have been rattling around in my head today to myself or I’ll be up all night typing – just write ’em off to a bad day and a grumpy mood!

‘Free Coalition Government’

Our wonderful president used this term when talking about forming a new Iraqi government… Is it just me or does this sounds odd and almost like a contradiction in terms… Doesn’t the term ‘Coalition’ imply some form of external control by at least the US and, thus, in conflict with the term ‘free’…. Maybe its just me being skeptical…

Hmmmm…

Maybe I should take George’s words at face value..

then again…

Maybe not! ;)..

Guess I just don’t trust a word the man Says! 😉

Ugggg

I’ve been congested for 5 days or so now.. Feel fine – just can’t get rid of the stuffy head… Driving me INSANE… Guess this is punishment for my frolicking on the beach back east! *sigh*
